Ooh, great topic! Can one ever have too many? But seriously, I’d be thrilled with a Birkin and a Kelly - both in a neutral, a Constance and a couple of colourful Kelly cuts!
How many is enough? What is your H number

My number now seems to be 13. I’ve added and edited over time, but now it seems like I’m at a place where I never think about adding to what I have. I’m 72 and living a very relaxed life. Very few of my friends have any knowledge of Hermes. It’s working great for me right now.

13 is a lucky number for Italians
Whatever it is, it has to be an even number because I have 2 girls. 30 maybe? But 38 feels excessive. I am still youngish and crave that orange box excitement in my life.
That's a hard one for me because I received offers for all the purses, both quota and non quota bags, that I had on my wishlist years ago, so I have been at peace for quite some time. However, when they come out with a rare or limited bag that I can carry on the daily, that is when I have to tell myself that I have enough and no more are needed, Haha.
Then come the offers and I'm like okay, maybe just this one
and no more and then like 10 bags later (6 non quotas and 3-4 quotas depending on the year and limited edition versions that come out) the cycle repeats itself each year.
My New Year's resolution this year will be to just enjoy what I have and pull out those beauties from their boxes and use each one at least one whole month before returning her to resting place....that is until another milticolored Birkin comes around

Lol! Silly me! Ok, my real number is 45. Wow, what is wrong with me, I am way behind.If it’s you and two girls, your current number is divided by 3,
I have too many and I need more. Current H number is 13 (all quota bags except 2). I don’t need anymore but looking a leather options
Great thread!
I wonder if you have types of bag for specific occasion / use?
Like I’m new to H and making a wishlist: I’d love to have in this order:
Bolide - everyday / work bag for day time, to carry work stuff for weekdays and baby essentials for weekends
Kelly to Go - to run neighborhood errands, school drop offs / pick ups / walking my dog, etc
Birkin - eventually in a year to interchange with the Bolide for work / weekend essentials carry
Kelly - Dinners, going out with girlfriends, date nights, etc
What about you all???

I thought I might finally commit to a number here, and did a bunch of math and opining (e.g., total purchased vs what's in the closet now).... but I'll spare you.
Half. Just half.
Half. Just half.
